Kin Capital Partners

What Kin Capital Partners does

Kin Capital Partners is a Lafayette, Louisiana-based private equity firm founded around 2020 by Jude David, Erik Billet, and Blake David. The firm pursues a differentiated permanent-capital-style model—operating without external limited partners, required minimum returns, or set exit timelines—focused on majority or total buyouts of profitable, family-owned businesses in the building materials manufacturing and distribution sector. Investment criteria target companies with at least three years of profitability and $500K to $10M EBITDA.

Through eight acquisitions completed over roughly four years, Kin Capital has assembled a portfolio of specialty door and window manufacturers unified under the Stately Doors & Windows umbrella brand. Portfolio companies include Wholesale Iron Doors (Dallas; wrought iron), Realwood Crafters (Atlanta; production-scale custom wood), Santa Fe Doors & Windows (Albuquerque; custom wood including fire-rated and historical reproductions), Builder's Door & Trim and Door & Millwork Company (Las Vegas; high-volume production and multi-family), Reilly Architectural (Calverton, NY; ultra-luxury custom hardwood and steel, est. 1981), and Bayou Wood Products (West Monroe, LA). Stately itself was formed in February 2021 by rebranding Stately Logistics and now operates nine locations across six states with 140+ employees.

The underlying technology combines artisan craftsmanship with production-scale manufacturing across iron, wood, and clad door and window categories. Stately Doors & Windows positions itself as the only single-brand, complete custom product line for ultra-luxury residential and hospitality customers, offering end-to-end service from consultative design through manufacturing, delivery, installation, and white-glove service. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of custom and stock doors and windows, distributed via direct enterprise relationships with large production builders, architects, designers, and ultra-luxury homeowners, alongside wholesale distribution channels. Following the September 2024 acquisition of Reilly Architectural from Pella Corporation's Luxury Division, the platform reached $100 million in annual revenue.
